How to Get to ROPECRAFT Chicago – ROPECRAFT Rope Event

“I need travel information for getting to the hotel, to & from the airports, etc. ”

No Problem! Here is a ton of GREAT information!

Public Transportation Overview

Chicago is a very large city with two separately run and separately priced public transit systems serving the city itself and the extensive suburbs.

Different routes run at different times of the day, and an online search for the most up-to-date information for your specific travel times is HIGHLY ADVISABLE.

Many folks use the Chicago public transit options for business and pleasure, and they are designed for high capacity work commute times on weekdays and less frequent pleasure travel on weekends.

Public Transport from Chicago Airports:

There are three public transportation systems:

Metra (light rail, trains to many places including other states)
Chicago Transit Authority – CTA (buses and trains)
PACE (buses)

The Regional Transit Authority (RTA) is an umbrella group covering all of these systems. Poking around on their website gave me ALMOST as much decent information as using Google Maps to explore routes but also pricing and payment information AND information about Accessibility!

There are two main options to fly into Chicago: O’Hare International (ORD) and Chicago Midway (MDW). Public transportation from an airport to the host hotel will take around two hours and involve a CTA train, then a transfer to the Metra BNSF (to Aurora), followed by multiple transfers to bus lines.
